Nah, not that fairly long. 5 fertilizers and 1 watering session should get your plants up and running almost instantly. For creatures, at most you need 1d16h to get them at 100.
I can only finish those 8hr classes with the help of pets and some secret energy spots. If I wait for my energy to recharge, I won't even be able to complete it even if I use all the remaining times.
If you have completed its compulsory classes before house pride, then it's okay to move on. But like I just said, play like you are in the HP event (well, you are!), check out if those main story tasks give house points on the way.
You can progress the main story, but can't attend its compulsory classes. Say for example you are in Y6C2. There are 5 story tasks and 2 compulsory classes. You can play its 5 story tasks, but can't initiate its required classes. Well, perhaps my wording wasn't quite right. 'Progress the main...
You should really pay attention to these events, man. And I think you're following the wrong discord. You're following the official one, not the fandom. Official dc won't release information such as event schedule. They don't allow it there.
Those tiles have tasks. Tiles = tasks. They're the same. Since you can't avoid FM now, well, to make it simple for you (and to save myself from over-explaining), just play like you are in a House Pride event. No classes, no search for creatures food, progress main story or side quests slowly...
Remember, you can only get banned if a support guy checks your account personally. As long as no one reports in, no one cares about your energy numbers.
Don't collect tiles, yes. But what I meant was, try only gaining points within those gaps. There are many tile tasks in your board including "Collect 16 stars" or "Collect 10 stars from Potions" or "Gain 10 House Points" etc. Those tasks include getting into classes. Classes have duration, and...
Yes. When you reach a certain number and stay on that number for long, you'll automatically get flagged. The upper limit is 650, with 651 will get you instantly flagged. That's why many players complain why would you be punished by hoarding energy. Because, if you're not doing anything, it's...
No. Just stay in your current board. Even when completed one board, don't collect them until the end. At this point, you can play, but try not to gain any attention like suddenly racking points in a matter of minutes. Usually there's a gap, 7h for duels, 8h/3h/1h for classes. Try gaining points...
I once got false banned during HP (before transitioning). My group was a cheater full house. But, I appealed to support and they gave me the grand prize as a consolation gift. Even before transitioning, my account was already flagged because I hoarded energy.
You were once played honestly, you should (probably) know how legit players play during FM, right? Try not to gain points within minutes. You can read this.
As I said before, MM rewards can remain uncollected for 3 months. Unless I can't reach the grand reward before the time. But, it's really rare. Even with two times MP events per month, I usually still have at most 3 days before it's due.
